IS OPEN ENDED QUESTION STILL DIFFICULT FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS?

Abstract

This study aims to provide an overview of students' answers in answering open-ended questions on square and rectangular material. The research method used in this study uses a qualitative descriptive method. The subjects of this study were third grade elementary school students who were adapted to the material being studied in relation to students' daily lives. Test questions are given to students and then interviewed about written answers and to explore students. The results showed that students did not know if the answer to the question could be more than one and the reasons given were less exploratory. This is due to the learning and evaluation that teachers use on a daily basis only as "textbooks". These results become the teacher's reflection material in planning learning, implementing learning and planning evaluations at the end of learning.
